Why Online Event Attendee surveys about discussion topics matter

Not running an Online Event Attendee Discussion Topics survey? You’re missing out on some of the most direct, actionable feedback your events can get. Surveys like these are the backbone of authentic attendee engagement and session improvement. According to a recent report, 90% of virtual event organizers use surveys to measure attendee satisfaction, demonstrating how standard—and essential—this practice is for optimizing event outcomes [2].

• Unfiltered attendee feedback shines a light on what people truly care about, giving you clues about what worked and what flopped.

• When you ask about specific discussion topics before or after your event, you tap into a goldmine of trends, interests, and unmet needs.

• Pre-event surveys let you fine-tune schedules and content to attendee interests—which can dramatically boost participation and satisfaction [3].

• Neglecting these insights? You risk repeating mistakes and losing out on valuable engagement opportunities others are already leveraging.

We’ve seen that when you treat feedback like an ongoing conversation, as we do at Specific, you unlock a smarter, community-driven approach to event planning. If you're keen to see exactly what to ask, check out the best questions for Online Event Attendee surveys about discussion topics.

The AI survey generator advantage

Creating the ideal Discussion Topics survey used to mean hours spent planning, writing, and editing questions—and you’d still worry about data quality. Specific’s AI survey generator flips that upside down. Comparing traditional methods vs. our AI-driven approach isn’t even a contest, especially when AI-powered surveys achieve completion rates of 70–80%, compared to 45–50% for traditional surveys [1]. That’s a whole new level of engagement and result quality.

Why use AI for Online Event Attendee surveys?

• 60% reduction in creation time and 30% better data quality with AI survey tools [4].

• Higher response rates and richer answers, thanks to conversational, adaptive questioning.

• No manual tweaking—AI ensures bias is minimized and clarity is maximized.

We’ve built Specific with best-in-class conversational surveys, making feedback seamless and actually enjoyable for both creators and respondents. For more on the inner workings, check out our AI survey editor.

Designing questions that drive real insight

Let’s face it: poorly worded questions only lead to confused answers and wasted analysis. Here’s a quick before-and-after:

• Bad question: “Did you like the event sessions?” (Vague—what sessions? Like what, exactly?)

• Good question: “Which discussion topics interested you most and why?” (Specific—and it prompts for actual insight.)

Specific helps you create surveys like an expert, avoiding common pitfalls such as leading or ambiguous questions. Our AI survey generator automatically detects and corrects vague phrases. The AI can rephrase or extend your questions and add context-driven details to ensure respondents know exactly what you mean.

If you’re DIY-ing a question, keep this guideline: Ask for specifics, avoid assumptions, and always allow space for authentic opinions. And if you want to take it to the next level without the guesswork, that’s what Specific is built for.

Automatic follow-up questions based on previous reply

Static surveys miss the most promising insights—because they don’t ask “why?” or “can you clarify?” Specific’s conversational approach uses AI to ask smart follow-up questions in real time, based on what the respondent just said. Each answer is a springboard to richer, context-driven feedback. This is crucial: a study found that an AI-powered chatbot conducting conversational surveys elicited significantly better quality responses in terms of informativeness, relevance, specificity, and clarity [5].

• Online Event Attendee: “I thought the AI discussion was interesting.”

• AI follow-up: “What specifically about the AI discussion stood out to you?”

• Online Event Attendee: “Some topics felt too advanced.”

• AI follow-up: “Can you share which topics you found too advanced, and what could make them more accessible?”

Without these follow-ups, replies stay surface-level and you’re left guessing about the real pain points—missing out on a whopping amount of value. Try generating a conversational survey here to experience these smart follow-up questions firsthand.

These follow-ups aren’t just extras—they turn surveys into conversations, making every response feel understood and valued. For an inside look, see how automatic AI follow-up questions work.

The end result? Every survey becomes a true conversation—welcome to the conversational survey era.
